A truck rental company charges $20 plus 9 cents per mile. Joe’s friend offers to rent Joe his truck for $35 and won’t charge him mileage. What is the minimum number of miles Joe has to drive to save money using his friend’s truck?
His friend is charging him $15 dollars more. If you divide 15 by .09 you will get the amount of equal to the amount he’s paying. If you divide 16 by .09 you should get the minimum amount of miles to make money. Which is 177.77 repeating. I hope that helps!
